MSI working on a backpack VR Gaming PC

To show it at Computex 2016

According to MSI's teaser for the upcoming Computex 2016, it appears that the company is working on a "backpack" portable PC system designed for VR gaming.

Such concept would allow users to plug in the VR headset and move freely around, providing a new level of "portable gaming".

According to what we can gather from information provided by MSI, this system will practically be a notebook packed in a backpack-like PC case or a small mini-ITX PC system although we are not sure what kind of battery pack you would need.

MSI has promised that it will be powered by desktop-grade components like Core i7 CPUs and Geforce GTX 980 graphics card, and most likely Pascal-based GTX 1080M when it comes out.

Hopefully we will see more details about MSI's backpack PC at Computex 2016 but, for now, we just can't see people strapping a fully loaded PC system on their back.
